EW writer:
Felix questioned my proficiency in English. I told hI'm a native speaker. He was somewhat disbelieving and pointed out what was wrong with my posts. So, I explained why they come across like they do. Unfortunately, he thinks these are excuses and not the truth. So, if that is playing the disability card, well strike me dead with a lightning bolt.

Smirk:
I only mentioned the qualifications because Felix doesn't think I could've earned a masters degree with my pc skills.

Felix:
I've changed my mind. I do still like you. I just wish you'd understand that I am not making excuses I am explaining things to you, that's all.

Summary:
the ap's essay is not good. Although, my review is accurate, the lack in coherence in my posts does not give me the authority to judge the ap's essay because I am not brilliant myself. Therefore, any forum post can be judged, not only those who wish their essays to be judged.

Carp sounds very different from crap. I already asked you if you want all my qualifications to prove that I'm not talking crap. Just go reread your posts, then you'll see how rude you came across. I have no soppy stories to tell, only the truth and if that seems soppy to you then you obviously have a great life. I already told you that I like you, well I want to change that statement: I liked you.

Felix:
Oh sorry, the previous crap was in the middle of some weird stuff so it didn't register. I was just taking note of what you were saying about me and my writing. But, you seriously are being rude tonight. I've given you all my reasons for writing like I do. They are the truth and not some lame ass excuses. I'm sure you will be happy to hear that I do not plan to do academic writing for much longer. I am going to do my phd in creative writing. They help you publish your book and everything! :] In all honesty I dislike academic writing, I just have to do it so I can pay for my mother's old age home fees. So be at ease masterful Felix! I do not plan to impose my substandard skills on your sacred turf for much longer. Oh yes, since seeing you were really offensive in suggesting that I would use my disability as an excuse... Go screw yourself, I'm sure it will bring you almost as much pleasure as fixing forum posters' grammar.

I wasn't being horrible. I just wanted to know what the fish was all about? My pc read, carp. So, I was confused. No need to be rude.

Felix:
Do you remember the first thread, "well only thread" I started? Smirk an I had a discussion. I can't see, so I listen to everything on my computer. That's what I was talking about. No, I wasn't looking for sympathy, I am unbalanced, it's a fact. When I was at school, I used braille. In braille you have things called contractions; these are abreviations for words. For instance, according is just ac, v is very, ab is about etc. You also have one symbol for a series of letters, like a dot 3 4 and 6 stands for ing. So, my spelling isn't always purfect. In ms word, I have a spell check but not in my browser. At varsity, they had a problem with printing my notes, some lame ass excuse about enough staff. So, my work was read to me on a tape until I got my screen reading software, which reads in a computer generated voice. When I write essays, I print them in braille to check punctuation, then convert it back to a ms word document to check on spelling. It's a long process, but it works. Please understand that I cannot do that for forum posts. As to what I meant about reading alot: I am more creatively inclined than linguistically. I'm sorry for being rude in one of my earlier posts. I've just had to fight for every bit of education in my life.

Felix:
No, I don't have a spell check in my browser. I think my explanations are quite relevant. I read a hell of alot, but not with my eyes remember. I don't mind your honesty. I just wish you would do it in a less confrontational manner. Well, I'm off to slit my wrists, because despite being "a bad english native speaker" and disabled, I am bipolar too! Haha! Too bad you caught me on my crazy day... oh wait it's night here. Goodnight Felix, love you xxx

Smirk:
Sorry, off day. I think it's because I've had to fight every step of my life.

Felix:
What ever! Dude, do you derive pleasure from being so difficult! Trust me, you have absolutely no idea about my country and the local populace. Would you like my academic records, cirtificates and every essay, poem, short story etc. I've ever written to prove that you are just being an ass by pursuing this "observation" of yours. The point of this thread was to judge that "interesting" essay in the first post, not "let's pick on Zandermus, because he/she seems vulnerable at this moment in time". I think it's disgusting that you judge people's english skills on this forum when they're writing in a colloquial and not an academic style. So, analyse that so-called academic essay in the first post.

Smirk:
Hmm, like the word "braai" which means "barbicue", we call a "verge" a "pavement", a "traffic light" a robot etc.

Now that I think about it, the only person I really know who speaks an uncorrupted form of English, is my dad, he's British.

Most english speakers insert so many Afrikaans words in there speach and viseversa. I don't do that at least! Yet, I am still a native English speaker and my english is way better than the english all my cousins in Wales speak. All in all I get what you're saying Smirk. Have I ever told you that I really like your forum name! It makes me laugh, especially when you make a snide comment. I can just imagine you sitting there with a "smirk" on your face!

Smirk:
Yes, most of my countrymen are bilingual. We are required to do two languages up until Matric level. I just decided to take a third language at university to make my life difficult!

We were a Dutch colony, then a British colony, then ruled by an oppressive minority government who imposed their language and culture on every one else. Now, we're a mixed up country that has 11 official languages! Absolutely crazy.

Felix:
Maybe it's because on this forum I write like I think, a bit mixed up? That happens to English Literature frieks you know who have spent too much time contimplating death and loneliness. My entire Masters class was the same. Perhaps the problem is that we were never obliged to take language classes, rather we were to stick our noses in some of the most bizarre books. Have you ever seen Sylvia plath's punctuation.. quite ghastly, just like mine; and Alice Walker's sentence structure is more awkward than mine!

Yes, I really am a native English speaker. I'm sure that horrifies you. :]
I speak two other languages as well. Okay, great I'm rambling again...

:[ I am a native english speaker. My punctuation sucks though. I also don't proof read my forum posts. I can send you an essay if you like? :[ Do you feel like judging this other essay? I tried to be nice to the poster, but seriously, how can anyone think that that is a good essay? I must just say that I like you Felix and I appreciate your criticism.

Prix:
I'm sorry but your post was rather useless. This business exists and your ranting isn't going to shut it down. Also, who is to say that the customer did not plan to use the ordered paper for background research.

My dear, I will be honest with you. Although, your ideas are pretty good, your sentence structure and grammar is not. Unfortunately, you have used incorrect verb forms in many places. Your sentences are not structured properly, often ending with parts that should have been in the middle of the sentence. I am sorry, but your essay just isn't at a high enough academic level. I am sure you are good at many other things, why don't you concentrate on them.

Spannish was an example. I am quite aware of the millions who speak Chinese and French as well. My question was whether such companies exist and if they are successful, not if any of us should start such a company.

April:
Yes, you see that will work, you can be the manager, handle the goings on and hire the writers!
Go April! Go April! Go April!

I've been wondering, are there any custom paper writing companies that opperate in languages other than English? Because that may work as well. For instance, there are so many countries which speak Spannish; therefore, it makes sense that these countries would need custom papers. Just wondering ...
Zandermus   
Feb 17, 2011

April:
I don't mean to be rude, but have you seriously been writing custom papers? Were these papers written in English? The problem here is that your forum post indicates that your english isn't very good at all. Maybe you are planning to contract other writers who can write in english. That may work you know, but only if you stick to being the middle man.

Kenyans aren't the scammers in Africa, that is the job of the Nigerians. I wouldn't be surprised if the so-called Kenyan scam companies aren't owned by Nigerians.

Strange, in Africa Kenyans aren't regarded as cheap labour, Zimbabweans are, shame.

Icyy:
I would like to offer my condolences. What exactly are you searching for?
Here's a pointer on how to to use the search thingy properly.
Do not search for: Best essay company, legit essay company, which essay company to trust etc. etc.
Take an essay company; for instance, *..* Type the name of the company into the search thingy. It will bring up threads related to that company. You will then be able to gage how that company is looked upon by fellow members. Take it from there.

P.S. Are you cold?

No, 2Mock is from the Bahamas.
Nice, I think you should rather set up a holiday resort. It will pay better than these shady companies that exploit their writers and rip off their customers. But, you should answer Smirk's questions, I'd also like to know the answers.

Syn:
None of us mentioned the f word "fraud". We were just pointing out some things that seemed fishy. You asked if you should use this site so some forum members checked it out and gave some feedback. You seem extremely defensive of this site... why? It's just odd that you used well established legit sites, now all of a sudden you come up with this site none of us have ever heard of. What is also weird is that the day after the site is discussed on this forum, it goes and changes some of it's info and layout. Like I said before, this may all be coincidence. We are just reporting things as we see them.

I still want to know if you can obtain a high level masters and PHD degree from a college? I really thought it was only from a university?

Okay, that's all. Oh no wait, are you still going to throw them a bone? Because if you do, maybe you can come back with more info on their delivery of work... assuming you "don't" work for them, which some of us suspect.

Wow! The music wasn't there yesterday. It was rather annoying, you're right Smirk, especially for me!

This is a new bit of info; it wasn't on the website yesterday. I wonder why? Could it be because Felix questioned their claimed period in the business?

Our Website is new, we are not. There are real people behind all this technology. We started writing in this genre 10 years ago, at Berkeley. There are fine writers here, no doubt.

We work "in the Cloud", which means we use the internet for our business now, though our local contacts are still strong. Because we can offer you our services in the Cloud, you, no matter where you are, get access to our services.

Oh look! Anew link has appeared since yesterday!
Freelance for us. "Interesting"

2. We pay next day payment, via Paypal, for completed projects.v
"Huh?"

This is what they require from those who wish to freelance for them:
1. A verifiable U.S. or U.K. college degree.
From the "about us" page: Our writers are all college graduates, with PhD's and Master's degrees. You know you are getting U.S. Writers, living in the U.S.

From a different place on the site: Our writers are PhD's and professionals,

I thought they have Masters or PhD degrees?

I don't know, but these sentences seem to contradict one another. I'm not sure about in the U.S. but in my country you are only able to obtain a masters and PhD qualification from a University.

2. Writing samples, of course
3. Your REAL name, REAL address, and REAL phone number. Thank you for being honest. We will return the respect.
4. Discretion, Confidentiality, Reliability, and Conscientiousness.

This is from the home page... not even I write a sentence like this!
What you are you waiting for? Do not get frustrated surfing the web for every questionable essay service - let us take the worry of that writing project off your mind, and onto ours:

Why did they change some info since yesterday? Maybe it is a coincidence... but, it is rather odd...

I went to check out the site. Felix is right, they claim to have been in business for over ten years; yet, the date of establishment is 2011.

I have never encountered a site where so much info is repeated over and over again. They also place a huge amount of emphasis on not being from the Ukraine... it's over the top... this just makes me think they are trying to hide something. I read through the entire site and picked up grammar and spelling mistakes. The form you need to fill in in order to receive a quote for a project is extremely similar to that of cp's... strange don't you think?

Sin I'd stay away if I were you!

Oh yeah, another thing, during my search I encountered mindtree ltd. They opperate from India... a bit of a coincidence I'd say:
"mindtreewriting.com"
"mindtree ltd"

Surely, a legitimate essay company would not use such a terrible name? It's absolutely awful! A friend of mine used this company. Unfortunately, she did not receive her essay on time. The essay was also below standard and they refused to refund her.

Smirk:
I am visually impaired. I normally use jaws for working in word and reading my books. But, this site won't allow me to use jaws 9.0 when typing in the edit box. I do not know if it is the layout or something. So I use 10 IMB which is a voice activated program to write on this site. It came as part of my jaws package when I ordered all my software. But, it is not very good is it? What happens with jaws is that if you type an a it says a and you can go read back what you wrote. But with 10 IMB it relies on your voice and how you pronounce things. I have no way of going back to read what I wrote. I'm sure this is all off topic and I don't want to get in trouble. So if you want to know more about the things us blind people use to get on with in this technological age please email me.

Dodgy WritersWhy Felix? Did you try it?

Wb, what was the last word of your post? I can't figure it out.

If I write in microsoft word can I copy it here? Then I wouldn't have this problem and I will stop receiving abuse for something that is not my fault.

Even though you were rude wb I really do appreciate the info.

I know you are older and well established Felix, that's why I appreciate what you say and that's why I want to find a way to fix it even if it is just for this site.

When I type normally with my own two hands things work out alot better even though jaws is still a real pain.

But, I got what I wanted. Kpwriting is ar and it is rubbish, a scam from Ukraine. Thank you.

Thanks Smirk...
Pursue! Did it come out right this time? If not I'm chucking this voice reading thing through the window! It spells things the way you pronounce them and it relies on the tone of your voice for punctuation.
Zandermus   
Jan 20, 2011

Please leave my punctuation alone. My software isn't compatible with this site. So you use a voice activated program and see what happens. Try it then get back to me. wb: I searched but could come up with nothing otherwise I would not have asked, I'm not a complete moron.
